About the Game

Escape 2049 is an action shooting / puzzle / platformer game, originally developed for the Sega Genesis / Megadrive and this is the improved PC version.

In the year 2042, following a clandestine operation to expose the corrupt government's activities, a hacker named Shun, a member of the Truth Defenders Coalition, was imprisoned in Bulor 24 Prison!
Despite his escape, Shun was deeply affected by the experience and decided to give up, withdrawing from society.
Seven years later, his partner Elena took up the fight again, more determined than ever to avenge what her husband had suffered.
Despite her extreme caution, the government had acquired AI-powered surveillance tools, she was discovered and imprisoned in a highly secured prison!

The game takes place in four different environments (prison, asteroid, desert, forest).
Shoot enemies from all directions, collect access cards to open secure doors, use red round grenades to destroy walls blocking passage, and blue rectangle grenades to temporarily disable security cameras.
Test your memory by hacking the prison computers to disable the laser barriers.
